They were 2 brothers from Rome who sided with the Plebians in the escallating Plebian vs. Patrician conflict. They were sons of Cornelia who was the daughter of Scipio Africanus. Tiberius Gracchus became tribune of Rome in 133 BCE and tried in many ways, some illegally, to help the common and poor people. He eventually passed a bill returning public lands to the state for distribution which was vetoed by another tribune. He illegally passed a bill kicking that tribune from office while illegally running for reelection and then passed his land bill again. This sparked a riot in which he was stripped to his underwear, beaten to death with a broken stool, decapitated, and thrown in the Tiber. His brother met a similar fate after being elected tribune in 123 BCE.
The Gracchi brothers were reformers who tried to redistribute the land of the major patricians to the plebeians [Tiberius Gracchus 133 BCE]. Gaius ten years later, [123 BCE] with the assistance of publicans tried to impose taxes in Asia but he was in conflict to senatorial influence. Both brothers were killed by their opponents
